When you are off the grid then it's the only thing we have to clear a stoppage. Only usable in straight pipe with a cleanout access. Closet bends are a problem. Good for soft stoppages and bottles jammed in the pipe.

I have a sink tape and the heavier General main tape you get at the supply house. The city guys have a really heavy tape with a large ball. I use it mostly for locating sewers. If its a PVC line I have also used a tape before running a camera when I was not near power.

What if no fuel is available?-------------The Honda generator seems to be very good,what wattage would be your minimun?

Look into them. I think 1/2 a gallon will run all day. If there is a possibility you may need it I am sure you will run by a gas station if you need gas. I don't know what you may need it for so I am not sure. I was looking at the 2000 watt unit. Maybe plan the trip a little better and ask some extra questions before heading out. I would ask about where the cleanout is and if the have outside faucets. Maybe a nice neighbor wouldn't mind letting you use water.

I was thinking 3500 watts to run a K-1500,most of the problems with capped hose bibs are at apartment bldgs,and there is often no time plan the trip.
